• Manage the Executives’ office by providing feedback and direction on priorities, managing expectations and follow-ups with the Executives and the team, as necessary.
• Own the day-to-day workflow of the Executives, and work with the team to prioritize and gain a holistic understanding of needs.

• A minimum of 10 years’ experience supporting senior-level executive’s
